POTHOLES…..Datuk Richard Yong Chairman of SAPP Tanjung Aru CLC together with Bahari Aship, Vice Chairman of the CLC looking at buses entering the Terminal where there are potholes everywhere.
“Improve the KK Bus Terminal immediately and construct pedestrian overhead bridges as soon as possible.”
Datuk Richard Yong, Secretary-General of SAPP made a site inspection at the KK Bus Terminal and urged DBKK and the authorities concerned to act immediately to rectify the deplorable situation of the Bus terminal Kota Kinabalu at Wawasan Plaza and to construct pedestrian crossing bridges to ensure the safety of the pedestrians.
Richard Yong said, “Everyday, thousands of people, young and old arrived by bus have to cross the main roads to Wawasan Plaza and then to the other part of the city. Most of the times you can see they have to risk their lives while crossing the road,
“Over the years, time again the authorities had talked about making good the conditions of the bus terminal and the plan for the construction of the pedestrian overhead bridges but unfortunately, nothing has happened.”
RISK….A common scene at the Wawasan Plaza, pedestrians risking their lives while crossing the road.Richard Yong lamented that the government saw the need to provide two pedestrian overhead bridges at the highway linking Tanjung Aru and KK International airport which is quite under-utilized but don’t seem to see the urgency to construct overhead bridges at pedestrian busy area such as near the bus terminal, Putatan and 1-Borneo.
He further commented that the condition of the bus terminal is getting unbearable for the users. Pot-holes are all over the place. During draught season, the people have to suffer the dust, on rainy days it is muddy and wet. It simply don’t match the image of the city for having a bus terminal of such condition and certainly contradict the government’s slogan on ‘People First, Performance Now’“I hope the authorities will be sympathetic and don’t have to wait until any untoward incidents to happen. Act immediately to rectify shortcomings and improve the bus terminal,” said Richard Yong.
Juz look like a "cowboy" town station ba... Datuk!
ReplyDeleteEven their buses include mini buses manage in a very chaotic way.All because of 'rubbish' business they do and how you expect tourist for convenient use of buses within city.
Sometimes local sabahan themselves lost their way to travel with buses too.
This reflect what kind of planning we have for city saying different from doing it. Malu ba....Datuk Richard Yong, betul tak?
Kita ada banyak keindahan kalo butul-butul buat perancangan tapi ko pigi tenguk kadai-kadai kecil di bus stesyen to!
ReplyDeleteButul ni dio orang mcm bawa kerbau masok bandar dekat tepi Sutera Harbor sekeliling pandangan jadi buruk juga.
Macam-macam...ni
KK is a city? They dun even have a proper bus terminal in the centre of the city as shown at the picture above.
ReplyDeleteOur mayor sleeping kah or busy counting money?
DBKK perlulah memberi perhatian kepada masalah ini setelah ia ditunjukkan. Harap tindakan akan diambil untuk menangani masalah ini.
ReplyDeleteSudah beberapa kali aduan ini dilakukan. Namun tidak ada tindakan susulan. Mana orang2 yang bertanggungjawab. DBKK??
ReplyDeletemungkin mau kena tunggu sampai bas tidak boleh masuk ke kawasan terminal itu kerana rosak teruk baru DBKK ambil tindakan..
ReplyDeletebangunan2 banyak pula dibina tapi terminal bas yang hari2 diguna langsung pula tidak diperbaiki dan dinaiktaraf.
ReplyDeletekeadaan terminal bas tersebut perlulah diperbaiki bagi memberikan keselesaan kepada semua pengguna.
ReplyDeletetermainal bas tersebut harus dperbaiki dan dinaiktaraf, baru sesuai dgn nama terminal bandaraya Kota Kinabalu.
ReplyDeletememang teruk, dan tersangatlah menyusahkan. huhu
ReplyDeleteHarap masalah ini dapat ditanggani secepat mungkin sebelum makin ramai pihak yang mengeluh.
ReplyDeleteIts a good thing that SAPP point out this issue. The responsible authorities should immediately do something about it.
ReplyDeleteYang susah sekarang melintas jalan dari wawasan plaza ke terminal. Harap jejantas akan dibina bagi memastikan pejalan kaki selamat untuk pergi ke terminal.
ReplyDeleteBerapa peruntukan.....adaduit kah. Saya mahu ikut tender....sangup bayar bawah meja.Dekat election sudah ini. Nanti tidak ada duit beli undi. CEPAT2 buat seblum ada yang mati
ReplyDeleteHarap2 selepas pendedahan kedua ini, pihak yg bertanggungjawab dapat melakukan sesuatu untuk menyelenggara Jalan tersebut...kredit juga patut diberikan kepada Hiew King Cheu kerana beliau orang pertama yg datang & kesan masalah ini...
